Under Wayland, 4 fingers up are seen as 3 fingers up. Unders Xorg it worked. #303

Here's are my infos: (the .sh files are bash script that allows me to do repeat gestures. for example if I do 3 fingers up and then do 3 fingers down, it just evoke "Escape" key to exit, and it doesn't do the the action that I set for 3 fingers down)

$ libinput-gestures -l

Describe the issue If I try to use 4 fingers up gesture, I can't. If I comment all the lines of my libinput-gestures.conf file and I only leave the 3 fingers up gesture and the restart libinput-gestures, I am able to use it by using 4 fingers up. All this is when using Wayland. In xorg it was running flawless.

Please follow the trouble-shooting section. In particular, do steps 5 and 6 with for various 3 and 4 finger swipe gestures. Step 5 will show you how many fingers libinput-gestures is interpreting for each gesture and step 6 will show you the raw messages from libinput with the finger count.

thanks for answer. it looks like libinput-gestures is correctly interpreting 4 fingers up and 3 fingers up.

I noticed that if I remove ALL the gestures from ~/.config/libinput-gestures.conf and I restart libinput-gestures and I do the 4 swipe up gesture, it performs the action..... How is it possible if I removed all the gestures? I don't have /etc/libinput-gestures.conf file so I don't know how can it be possible.....

It's pretty easy to completely turn libinput-gestures off, i.e. type libinput-gestures-setup stop and then prove it is not involved. I don't use or know much about KDE, perhaps it is actioning those?

If I stop libinput-gestures and I do 4 fingers up, I have the action activated... a real mistery... I don't think that kde uses gestures by default.

So it seems there is no problem with libinput-gestures. Do you agree to close this bug?
